Project description:Ten cattle have been challenged with two Lumpy Skin Disease Virus (LSDV). They were sampled for whole blood immediately before (pre) and three and seven days after (post) infection challenge with two virus strains (H vs. O). The whole RNA-sequencing was done, and 150bp paired reads were assembled as the transcriptome. It was then computationally analyzed to find the differentially expressed genes (DGE) that enrich the gene ontology (GO) terms and KEGG pathways. Depending on the challenged LSDV strain, they influence the host response differently.
